And they could make the rotor look like a bullet.

Why not add some "fake" lume patina once AP is at it.

Anyone good at photoshop?
you're right, sorry, it wasn't guns on the dial but a whole bunch of "007's", on a Jumbo that would be awesome, a tapisserie dial not of squares but of guns or 007's, for the rotor not a bullet, a naked woman silhouette, wow awesome sign me up

I hear Donald Duck is looking for a sponsor watch... Omega?
Have you seen the new 'commander' from Omega? I think that IS a good fit for Donald Duck

I think AP should hire You to their design department.

It would. Yes I've seen it live and I honestly think Omega has gone braindead.

That Omega doesn't seem very British, seems more of the 4th of July, ie the worst day in British history.

I think so too, have many other great ideas, a Gru rotor would be great on a Despicable me model for example

truthfully a special edition based on zombie apocalypse type of movie would be more likely based on track record.

End of days... apocalypse theme
T3... apocalypse theme with robots from the future

I'm really surprised there was not a watch for the walking dead TV show as they have not made a Zombie watch yet. TV might be too downmarket for AP though since its not a movie.

After civilization crumbles, everyone still has an AP. No running water, no electricity, but awesome watches survive... its really brilliant if you think about it.

Won't even ask who are Rob and Chyna, there's a reason why our TV is not getting any network, we are against, serves for DVD's and PS4, I know they have this tv show, and it's really not what I want to have in my home when someone is bored, for me tv is made to indoctrinate and make the masses stupid, but hey I don't think the World trade center 7 or the 2 biggies, came down because of fire, would be a first triplet in the history of man. Controled demolition for sure, so some think I am a nut, maybe, or maybe I have a lot of time on my hands not working and spend endless days/months on the net searching subjects that interest me....
Sign me up for the iced Nauts though

Idk...AP and Bond don't mix. Bond is a tool watch person. He has objectives and cannot afford to stand out. I think Omega is the the only watch he should wear.

If we group AP, Patek and VC then can we see Bond wearing those too? Maybe a SS or strap versions? More no then yes
